2025 Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Walley brings speed and four years of starting experience from Minnesota to the NFL, but the rookie third-rounder's immediate fit is difficult to project for the Colts. Charvarius Ward and Jaylon Jones are strong starters on the outside, while veteran Kenny Moore remains an every-down player in the slot. Walley spent most of his time in college as a starter on the outside, but at just 5-10, 190 pounds, his size is more typical of a nickel at the NFL level. Read Past Outlooks
Officially moved to IR
Walley (knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday.
ANALYSIS
Walley was diagnosed with a torn ACL on Thursday, effectively ending his rookie season. This move now makes that official. The timing of the injury was particularly unfortunate, as Walley was reportedly contending for a starting role at outside corner.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Impressing early in rookie season
Walley has caught the attention of defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo during OTAs and minicamp, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Colts selected Walley with the 80th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and scouts tabbed him as a slot corner given his 5-foot-10, 190-pound frame. He's played both inside and outside during spring and early summer practices however and has shown the ability to stick with receivers at both positions. Anarumo praised Walley and noted he could rise up the depth chart quickly if he grasps the intricacies of the Colts' defensive scheme.
